Doxydoc source code documentation generator

DoxyDoc is a source code documentation generator for Javascript, LESS and CSS.

Installation

Requirements: node.js >= 0.10.0, See nodejs.org for Install instructions

The following command installs it globally by using npm

npm install -g doxydoc

Usage

Change into your project root and run DoxyDoc command: doxydoc [options] file1 file2 file3

The doxydoc --help command shows you all commandline options. The flowing command creates a documentation under <cwd>/docs/ and creates a documentation from all .js files located under src/ and lib/.

doxydoc -o docu.html index.js src/**/*.js lib/*.js

Each source file should have a @module or @group tag. Otherwise its filename will be used as a module name. DoxyDoc looks into a file for a @module tag and groups all comment blocks under this module name. The @group tag overrides the module name for the current comment block.

/**
 * @module myModule
 */

/**
 * Simple function
 */
function foo() {
    
}

/**
 * Simple function
 */
function bar() {
    
}

This adds function foo and bar to myModule. The next function is placed in the same file, but shouldn't be under myModule.

/**
 * Other simple function
 * @group secondModule
 */
function blub() {
    
}

This creates a new group in the documentation view and adds this function under secondModule

Syntax

DoxyDoc supports lots of tags. See our syntax declaration page for more infos.
